This digital panel meters are versatile, cost effective solutions to a wide variety of monitoring and control applications. Depending on the choice of signal conditioner, they are easily set up for an accurate display of temperature, pressure, flow, weight, voltage or current, all in appropriate engineering units and with zero and span adjustment when needed. Setup can be via front panel pushbuttons or the meter's serial interface. Selective security lockout of the front panel keys protects against accidental changes to meter setup.

High read rates up to 60 per second (50 for 50 Hz operation) are made possible by Concurrent Slope Conversion (Pat 5,262,780), which integrates the signal over an AC power line cycle for maximum noise rejection. High read rates provide accurate peak and valley capture, and quick response for control applications. An adaptive digital filter supplies a time constant for the encountered signal noise level, yet responds rapidly to changes that exceed a selected threshold. Self-calibration occurs automatically after every 17th reading.
